Here's How You Can View NASA's Announcement Of The Artemis II moon Crew

Photo Credit: BBC The four astronauts who will travel to the moon, maybe next year, will soon be made public by NASA. But, the Orion spacecraft of the Artemis II mission won't make a lunar landing. Instead, it will do a near flyby as part of a test trip to put all of the equipment on NASA's new crew capsule to the test. The Orion spacecraft performed exceptionally well on a crewless voyage to the moon and returned last year as part of Artemis I, so the space agency is already highly optimistic about its abilities. The Orion and its four astronaut crew will travel on the Artemis II mission just 80 miles off the surface of the moon before returning to Earth. Humans will be transported by Artemis II farther than ever before, 270,000 miles from our planet. In addition to earning a spot in history, the crew will also have an amazing view of Earth with the moon standing between them and the so-called "blue marble" that we call home.

The Artemis III mission, which is presently scheduled for 2025, is even more audacious than Artemis II and will bring people back to the lunar surface.
